His Own Writer

Don't corner the writer – put him in a cage and poke; you like Shakespeare...then read Shakespeare! And let the writer be his own rhyming or ill rhymed-bloke. To me, mistakes, imperfections – spontaneous glitches, as I prefer to call them – send me into joyful stitches; a fresh exhibition of relatable nature – the transformation of perfection into Human Interest. So, let the writer be his or her own protagonist, or Free-willed blessed Nemesis. Write and read whatever tickles you pickles you...and let Mike be Mike, and Jane be a literal-pain to her personable like.

Nice rhyming in the free verses, Joe! Your writing is so delicate, warm like a friend saying something!! Yes, leave the poet alone! One of our great poet said, there is no criticism for poetry, only appreciation or rejection, meaning don't torture the poet. just like what you are saying! isn't it? Also another great poet our said, if you like someone's writing, you say it out loud to the world, but if you do not, say it, but say it to yourself only! aren't these great views! Thanks - Marshall

Wise observations, Marshal. Thank you. If God were an inflexible critic, we would all be sunk. Grateful God is more loving. Blessings my friend. Your encouragement means a lot to me. Joe.

So many different types of writing. I love many though some too hard for current attention span. I love when people are real and relatable, can spin a fun tale, really put their ideas into a poetry wash. Great poem, Joe!
